Anchorage School District students no longer have to wear a typical cap and gown to their high school graduation. Now, they can wear any form of cultural regalia.
Jade Wren, Service High School graduate, walks on stage to receive her high school diploma on May 18, 2023.
In the days leading up to her graduation, she said she felt proud that she could show her Inupiaq heritage during the ceremony. Wren also wore sealskin slippers. Her graduation cap had sealskin and jade fastened to the top. And it was bordered with green and yellow beadwork — Service High School’s colors. Wren said Indigenous women in her life gifted her many of the items she wore.
